Get started with Create Presentation

This guide takes you from installation to your first finished deck. In the Google Workspace Marketplace the add-on is listed as Create Presentation with AI ChatGPT | Slides™ (see the product page).

Install from the Marketplace

  1. Open the Create Presentation listing in the Google Workspace Marketplace.
  2. Click Install and pick the Google account you use with Google Slides™.
  3. Review and approve the requested permissions. The add-on needs access to the presentation it runs in so it can insert the slides it builds.

Using a work or school account and seeing “You do not have access to this add-on”? Your administrator needs to allow it first: see Admin setup.

Open the wizard

Open any Google Slides presentation and go to:

Extensions → Create Presentation with AI ChatGPT | Slides™ → ✨ Create presentation

The wizard opens in a large window. If the menu item is missing, reload the browser tab and check that you are signed in with the account that installed the add-on.

Build your first deck in 6 steps

  1. Topic. Describe what the presentation is about, for example “Onboarding plan for new sales hires”, or click Suggest for ideas.
  2. Content. Start from just a topic, your own notes, a full script, or documents.
  3. Instructions. Choose the audience, tone, language and number of slides.
  4. Context. Add sources: PDF, DOCX, PPTX, TXT or Markdown files, web pages, Google Docs™ links and YouTube™ videos. Optional extras: web search for recent facts, speaker notes, a sources slide and a quiz slide.
  5. Outline. Review the plan before anything is built. Rename, reorder, add or delete slides, pick a layout for each slide (title, bullets, image and text, two columns, timeline, chart, table, quote, quiz or fill in the blank), or ask for changes in plain words.
  6. Design. Pick one of 10 styles, or open Brand kit to add your logo, brand color, heading font or a PPTX template. Choose stock photos, AI images, icons only or no images, then create the slides.

The slides are built right in your presentation from regular text boxes, shapes, images and tables, so you can edit everything and export it to PPTX or PDF through File → Download.

Edit slides with AI

When the deck is ready, the Edit slides with AI sidebar opens (you can also open it from the Extensions menu). Select a slide to:

  • Rewrite or make it Shorter
  • Remix layout to try a different layout
  • Get a New image
  • Ask for any change in your own words

For the whole presentation you can add speaker notes to every slide, translate it into another language, or switch to a different style.

Plans

Building the outline is free, so you can see the plan for your deck before you pay. Creating the slides requires a Starter, Pro or Premium plan. Plans differ in presentations per month, slides per deck, AI images and premium styles; see pricing.
